About Paul Dounis

Paul is a licensed insolvency practitioner based in our Edinburgh office and a member of both the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS) and CPA Australia.

With over 35 years of experience, he has advised distressed clients across major financial centres including Sydney, London, and Edinburgh. Throughout his career, Paul has worked closely with key stakeholders and management teams of underperforming companies, leading high-profile independent business reviews, corporate restructurings, and trading administration cases.

He has also worked on international projects in the Caribbean and the US, and specialises in the property, retail, manufacturing, distribution, and service sectors, with extensive experience in asset-based lending.

Before relocating to the UK, Paul spent 12 years in Australia working at specialised insolvency firms, handling a wide range of formal and informal insolvency administrations as a general practitioner.

Outside of work, Paul is an avid cricketer and regularly plays in leagues across Scotland. He enjoys long countryside walks with his cockapoo, Kimber, and is a passionate Fulham supporter. He also loves to cook great Greek food, being his original language as devolved from Greek parents.
